glam ./ anti-glam quotes (8 of ????)

"Oh, you mean nutty! Yes, he's a nutcase. Most of these titled fleabags are. Rich nobs and privileged arseholes can afford to be bonkers. They're living in a dreamworld, aren't they sir? Life's made too easy for them. They don't have to earn a living, so they do just what they want to. We'd all look pretty crackers if we went about doing just what we wanted to, wouldn't we? Eh?"
- Tucker the butler (played by Arthur Lowe) in The Ruling Class, 1972
